Homy for Domoticz, Home Assistant, ESP8266, MQTT

Homy allows you to control your home automation server Jeedom, Domoticz, Home Assistant even when you are not at home *. Homy is also compatible with the CPL home automation modules from the manufacturer Wattlet.

Homy also collects data and drives Arduino, ESP8266, ESP32-based connected objects using MQTT messages.

With Homy, you keep control over all your private data. No home automation control transits via a tier ** server. Homy supports HTTPS and WSS protocols (Websocket secured by SSL certificate). By activating the HTTPS or WSS protocol, all the commands and all the data (states of your home automation accessories, sensor measurements ...) are exchanged with Homy in a secure and encrypted way. This is also the case with the IP CCTV camera images connected to Home Assistant.

(*) requires a 3G or 4G internet connection. Also requires to use an online MQTT server or configure the router to expose your home automation server to the internet

(**) unless you are using an online MQTT broker such as cloudMQTT
